Am I the only person who REALLY dislikes Ayn Rand? I mean, I really, really can't stand her books.

I was trying to read The Fountainhead, but it was so bad. I just started reading The Onion Ad Naseum instead (which is awesome)I can't even finish any of her books. I only recently became aware of her extreme homophobia too.

I also tried to read The Fountainhead and gave up very quickly. it seems like I read something offensive about her recently as well, but I can't remember what it was. and as if that vaguery wasn't enough, Camille Paglia has praised her as a "feminist," which is often an indicator of how little I will like someone.

Yes, Camille Paglia also leaves a bad taste in my mouth!
